GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The small classes made it very easy to have one on one time with the teachers, and it helped me learn more. I would like to see the school spend more money to better the school and to better the students experience.

I enjoyed my time there. The main changes I would make would be to have agriculture and welding classes.

This school had been looked down on from everyone else in the area, but the education is better than most people will ever imagine. I am now a Freshman in college and I have found my classes much easier. I loved all of my years spent here.
